Had to sit and think real hard as to what day this is...It is hard to think December when we have spent the last couple days on dinghy rides and beach sitting. We returned "home" on November 29 after 2 weeks in Michigan cuddling, rocking, spoiling, cooing, drooling, etc...you get the picture, over our beautiful new baby granddaughter, Josie .....or JoJo as grandma calls her.
Here's a picture of Grandma Jane with Josie, and sister in law, Jan with her grandson John.....3 weeks older than JoJo. They should grow up to be great cousins and friends, just like their mamas, Molly Jo and Lynn did 30 plus years ago! (talk about losing track of time!)
So here we are.....back in Panama City Beach at Baypoint Marina. The weather has been perfect and the sunsets amazing. We were asked by a "buddy boat" to take off a few days ago with them, for a direct crossing of the gulf to Clearwater. It would have been perfect timing weather wise, but truthfully, we just weren't ready to leave our old stomping grounds. We have rented a car and are really enjoying seeing all our old "watering stations", places we owned (in another life), and shopping our favorite stores, (think land of 10,000 bathing suits!! and Alvins Island, the ultimate souvenir shop) and checking out real estate for perhaps a place to land after our "great adventure"...reminds me of the book I read about doing the loop......most places you visit, you say, " I could live here". This place has something to do with the warmth and the sunshine! But for the present, we are pretty happy onboard LeReve, and we have a great view of the bay and the city lights at night....however, we must think of moving on, as we have a flight out of Tampa in a few weeks.....back to Michigan for Christmas.....
I can't imagine what else I want or need than this precious gift! I am sure she misses her grandma and can't wait for me to get back to rock her!
She is precious!
